Crystal Palace named Oliver Glasner as their new manager on Monday, shortly after Roy Hodgson stepped down following a poor run that left the club hovering above the relegation zone. Glasner, who led Eintracht Frankfurt to Europa League glory in 2022, has signed a deal until the end of the 2025/26 season. "I am very happy to join Crystal Palace FC as manager," the 49-year-old Austrian said.
Pep Guardiola said Monday that higher expectations faced by Manchester City are the price of years of success as he prepares his men to face Brentford after a frustrating 1-1 draw against Chelsea. Saturday's result at the Etihad ended an 11-match winning run that began at the FIFA Club World Cup in December. It left last season's treble winners third in the Premier League, four points behind leaders Liverpool and two points behind Arsenal with a game in hand on both of their rivals.
Rodri's late equaliser extended Manchester City's year-long unbeaten record at home but a 1-1 draw against Chelsea on Saturday handed Liverpool and Arsenal a huge boost in the Premier League title race. Raheem Sterling gave Chelsea a first-half lead on his return to the Etihad and City were headed to a first defeat on home soil for 34 games until Rodri's deflected effort seven minutes from time. City move four points behind leaders Liverpool and two adrift of Arsenal, but have a game in hand on both their title rivals.
Mohamed Salah returned with a goal as Premier League leaders Liverpool routed Brentford 4-1 despite a rash of injuries, while Manchester City's title defence was damaged by a 1-1 draw against Chelsea on Saturday. Arsenal demolished Burnley 5-0 to keep the pressure on Liverpool, who are two points above the second-placed Gunners and four-ahead of third placed City. Salah came off the bench to replace the injured Diogo Jota in his first Liverpool appearance since their win over Newcastle on New Year's Day.
Mohamed Salah returned with a goal as Premier League leaders Liverpool routed Brentford 4-1 despite a rash of injuries, while Arsenal demolished Burnley 5-0 to keep up the pressure in the title race on Saturday. Salah came off the bench to replace the injured Diogo Jota in his first Liverpool appearance since their win over Newcastle on New Year's Day. Having returned from the hamstring injury he sustained on Egypt duty at the Africa Cup of Nations, Salah made up for lost time with his first goal for the Reds since the Newcastle game.
Manchester City host Chelsea in Saturday's late night Premier League match at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester. Pep Guardiola's men trail leaders Liverpool by just two points and could end the matchweek at the top of table if the Reds drop lose to Brentford in Saturday's earlier kick-off at the Gtech Community Stadium. Manchester City have six of their last eight Premier League meetings against Chelsea. Both teams drew 4-4 in the reverse fixture with Cole Palmer, the former City man, scoring a late penalty to equalise for the Blues at Stamford Bridge.
Pep Guardiola says Manchester City have to avoid being distracted by other teams' results in the Premier League title race as they prepare to face an "exceptional" Chelsea at the Etihad on Saturday. Defending champions City are second in the table, level on points with Arsenal and two adrift of leaders Liverpool, with a game in hand, as they hunt an unprecedented fourth consecutive English top-flight title. Guardiola's team have won their last 11 matches in all competitions.
Chelsea appear lambs to the slaughter ahead of a trip to Manchester City on Saturday as the English champions have hit top form as the business end of the season approaches. However, Pep Guardiola's men could have ground to make up in the Premier League title race by the time they kick-off at the Etihad with Liverpool and Arsenal in action before them on Saturday. At the other end of the table, Everton are hoping to move out of the bottom three when struggling Crystal Palace come to town on Monday.
